Triple Peanut Butter Cookie Pie
Description
The Triple Peanut Butter Cookie Pie features a batter combining melted unsalted butter, brown sugar, and creamy peanut butter, producing a rich foundation with a tender and chewy crumb. Adding brown sugar enhances moistness and depth. The batter is thickened with all-purpose flour and lightly salted to balance sweetness. Mini peanut butter cups and peanut butter M&Ms are pressed into and over the surface, creating chocolaty, nutty bursts throughout. Baking at 350°F for about 28 to 30 minutes yields a slightly gooey center that firms up as the pie cools, allowing clean slices. This dessert brings peanut butter fans a dense cookie pie experience, merging creamy, chewy, and candy bits in each bite. Storing in an airtight container keeps it fresh up to a week, or freezing extends its life to six months, although color changes to M&Ms may occur.
Ingredients
- ½ cup butter 1 stick, melted, unsalted
- 1 egg large
- 1 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- peanut butter creamy, heaping 1/3 cup
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- pinch salt optional and to taste
- 12 to 14 peanut butter cups mini
- peanut butter M&Ms I used one 2.83-ounce ‘King Size’ bag sold; optionally substitute with Peanut or Plain M&Ms, about 2/3 cup
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 9-inch pie dish with floured cooking spray; set aside.
- In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt the butter, about 1 minute on high power.
- Wait momentarily before adding the egg so you don’t scramble it. Add the egg, brown sugar, peanut butter, vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
- Add the flour, optional salt, and stir until just combined; don’t overmix.
- Turn batter out into prepared pie dish, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula.
- Evenly insert the peanut butter cups into the batter, pushing them down so the top is almost flush with the surface of the dough.
- Evenly insert the M&Ms into the batter, pushing them down to anchor.
- Bake for about 28 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter. If your pie has risen in the center, it will deflate as it cools.
- Allow pie to cool in pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving; however, for optimal results, cool overnight because it gives the flavors a chance to marry and the pie to really set up fully.
Notes
- Store the pie airtight at room temperature for up to one week or freeze up to six months; note that freezing may affect the M&Ms' color.
- Allow the pie to cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing to help it set properly.
